EXCELLENCE.
corrected age Answer: This is calculated for children born prematurely in order to "correct"
the number of weeks they were born before their due date
36 weeks Answer: Babies born before this gestational period are considered pre-term
smart Answer: Goals should follow what principle?
specific, measurable, action oriented, realistic, time oriented Answer: What does SMART
stand for in relation to goal writing?
apgar score Answer: This score is given to an infant when they are first born, becomes very
important if the birth is considered "eventful"
Bayley Scales Answer: The focus of this developmental assessment is standardized rating
scales that assess multiple areas of development to attain a baseline for intervention. 5
domains of cognitive, language, motor, social emotional, and adaptive behaviors are
assessed.
Bayley Scales Answer: This developmental assessment can be utilized on a population of
1-42 months and provides qualitative descriptions and performance levels.
Miller Assessment for Preschoolers Answer: The developmental assessment is a
standardized task performance screening tool that assesses sensory and motor abilities,
cognitive abilities, and combined abilities.
Miller Assessment for Preschoolers Answer: This developmental assessment can be
utilized on a population of 2 years 9 months - 5 years 8 months and compares each child's
performance to a set of norms to provide percentiles.
, PEDI Answer: This developmental assessment is a standardized behavioral checklist and
rating scale that assess capabilities and detects functional deficits. The 3 domains of self
care, mobility, and social skills are scored.
PEDI Answer: This developmental assessment can be utilized on a population of 6 months
- 7.5 years. It identifies children with patterns of developmental delay.
BOT-2 Answer: This developmental assessment provides an overall index of motor
proficiency, fine and gross composites, including consideration of speed, duration, and
accuracy of performance, and hand preference.
BOT-2 Answer: This developmental assessment can be utilized on a population of 4 years -
21 years. Provides a total motor composite score consisting of 4 motor areas: fine manual
control, manual coordination, body coordination, strength and agility.
PDMS Answer: This developmental assessment is the most widely used regardless of
practice setting.
PDMS Answer: This developmental assessment contains standardized rating scales of
gross and fine motor development. Including: reflexes, sustained control, locomotion,
object manipulation, grasping, and visual motor integration.
PDMS Answer: This developmental assessment can be utilized on a population from birth -
6 years. Provides a basal level, ceiling, and age equivalent.
gestational age Answer: age of the fetus or newborn in weeks, from the first day of
mother's last normal menstrual period
38-42 weeks Answer: What is considered a normal gestational period?
prenatal period Answer: During this period of sensorimotor integration:
1. responds first to tactile stimuli
2. reflex development
3. innate tactile, proprioceptive, and vestibular reactions
